Support South Orange-Maplewood PTAs With ‘Uncommonly Fun’ UnRun 5K June 2

It’s uncompetitive, unorganized — and uncommonly fun! The UnRun is a family-friendly and healthy way to support the Maplewood or South Orange elementary school PTA of your choosing and it’s happening for the third time on June 2.

The UnRun starts and finishes at the Marshall Elementary School playground. The entirety of the course is within the Montrose neighborhood of South Orange. Its route includes few hills and no crossing of non-closed street intersections. All turns are manned by volunteers to ensure that no one goes off-track. The event is designed to be family friendly and accessible to young runners. Non-running family members can play in the Marshall playground and still be able to clap runners home at the finish line.

There is a $25 entry fee for the UnRun which is donated to the Maplewood-South Orange elementary school of your choosing. Runners receive a t-shirt (S-M-L-XL) whose cost has been entirely donated by our generous sponsor Mark Slade of Keller Williams Realty.

In the second year of its existence, the UnRun donated $3,650 to our local schools. We hope that your participation in 2018 will allow us to double this number!
